Hello mauro,

You have to do a little bit of coding for that.

Go to wp-content/plugin/wp-user-frontend-pro/class and you will find a file called frontend-dashboard.php there. Please Open the file in a text editor.

Scroll down, in line no 60, You will find a code block like this,

//delete post
        if ( isset( $_REQUEST['action'] ) && $_REQUEST['action'] == "del" ) {
            $this->delete_post();
        }

All you have to do, just change $this->delete_post(); to wp_delete_post( $_REQUEST['pid'], true );

The end result will be like this,

//delete post
        if ( isset( $_REQUEST['action'] ) && $_REQUEST['action'] == "del" ) {
            wp_delete_post( $_REQUEST['pid'], true );
        }

I hope that will solve your problem.
